We Engineer Your Success

CarnaudMetalbox Engineering (CMB Engineering) designs, develops and manufactures high-performance metal forming and finishing machinery for the production of beverage, food and aerosol cans. With our commitment to innovation and precision engineering, we continuously strive to break the mold. With CMB Engineering, can manufacturers can keep up with consumer demands, capitalise on market opportunities and ensure production efficiency. We supply precision engineered canmaking machinery to a global market, Canmakers, Trimmers, Beaders, Die Neckers, Bodymakers, Decorators all available from our headquarters in Shipley, UK.

At CMB Engineering we pride ourselves on supplying advanced can manufacturing solutions to customers around the world. Drawing on our wealth of experience and the latest cutting-edge technologies, we work in partnership with our customers to speed up the canmaking process, enhance flexibility and productivity, reduce material waste and enhance product quality.

In CMB Engineering's Seamer Tooling division, we understand the demands placed on tooling during the seaming process. We work with customers around the world to improve their double seam quality through our advanced equipment, which is engineered to reduce wear to profiles and bearings while minimising maintenance and lubrication.

When installing new canmaking equipment, we recommend a CMB Engineering embedded engineer, who is on site every step of the way, from setting up the machine to running post-installation performance checks, levelling equipment, and connecting track work.

The success of our apprenticeship scheme is well-known both throughout the region and globally. Indeed, many of our managers started their career as apprentices on our scheme, including our General Manager Andrew Truelove.

At CMB Engineering, our engineers are highly trained and vastly experienced people in many different areas of the engineering process from R&D, Engineering Publications to Shopfloor Engineers and Assembly.

From metal forming and trimming through to complex decoration, our machines are tailored to the requirements of the customer. They are built to operate at high efficiency, produce cans of superior quality and increase output while minimizing downtime due to changeovers or maintenance.

Our success speaks for itself. Within CMB Engineering our many years in canmaking and industry pedigree means that there is a vast amount of knowledge for young, enthusiastic newcomers to tap into. It has long been a priority of ours to ensure that the skills and expertise of our more experienced team members are passed on to the new generation of canmakers.
